A Kind of Eden

Synopsis

Terrible things happen everywhere - even in paradise. An English policeman, who has taken a job with the Trinidadian police and moved across the world, away from his family, has begun to feel at home there. Despite the horror of the atrocious crimes he must investigate - kidnappings, burglaries, and so many murders - he feels he has rediscovered himself. Helped by Safiya, a vibrant young woman with whom he is having an affair. His family comes to visit him, and he plans to tell them how things have changed, how his feelings have changed. This is no longer a brief separation. But the Caribbean, though a place of great beauty, is a place of grave danger. One night he forgets this danger, and the result has consequences beyond his imagination.
